The identity of hṛdayamalla, Arjuna Malla and Udaya Malla is a obscure as that of viramalla and Indramalla. But as we have seen vīramalla figures as on of the kings ruling in NS 643 from the Bhatgaon Thalacchetol inscription. We shall see that he is also one of the signatories to the copper Plate agreement of NS 668. We do not get any more documents in the name of Indramalla, hṛdayamalla, Arjunamalla and Udayamalla.
